We have hundreds of machines, installed with non-volume license
software, and each machine is assigned a NAME - sticker on the outside
of the case (and on the inside too - since people like to remove them
for fun). The name of the machine is written on the software cases or
they are placed in a baggie with a note inside that identifies the
computer name.

Unless you get a Dell system (or any other OEM) you need to make sure
which CD's go with which installs - it's a total pain to remove Office
2000 from a computer without the proper CD (it's actually easier to
format and reinstall).
